Supercontinuum generation with optical vortices.
We employ an optical vortex beam for the generation of femtosecond supercontinuum in a solid state medium. We demonstrate that the continuum generation process is initiated by the filamentation of the vortex, resulting in a spatially divergent continuum. Despite the strong self-focusing and the formation of multiple hot-spots along the vortex ring, the singularity is preserved in both the near-...
متن کاملSupercontinuum Generation In Optical Fibres
In this work, a high power Ytterbium pump laser was used in a quasicontinuous wave (CW) pump scheme to generate supercontinua in two different optical fibres, a depressed cladding, graded index highly nonlinear fibre (HNLF), and a solid core photonic crystal fibre (PCF). Pumping a 300 m length of the HNLF with a peak pump power of 140 W, a continuum with a spectral flatness of 5 dB over 1000 nm...
متن کاملSeeded supercontinuum generation with optical parametric down-conversion.
The transition between modulation instability gain and induced soliton fission in nonlinear fiber is experimentally investigated by coherent seeding with the two-color output of an optical parametric oscillator. This approach produces supercontinuum spectra displaying persistent, fine modulation from seeding-induced noise reduction. Numerical simulations support the findings.
متن کاملGeneration of lattice structures of optical vortices
We demonstrate experimentally the generation of square and hexagonal lattices of optical vortices and reveal their propagation in a saturable nonlinear medium. If the topological charges of the vortices have identical signs, the lattice exhibits rotation, whereas if their signs alternate between being the same and being opposite to each other, we observe stable propagation of the structures. In...
متن کاملOptical vortices with large orbital momentum: generation and interference.
We demonstrate a method for generation of beams of light with large angular momenta. The method utilizes whispering gallery mode resonators that transform a plane electromagnetic wave into high order Bessel beams. Interference pattern among the beams as well as shadow pictures induced by the beams are observed and studied.
